Starting with the latest, to the earliest:

Thanks to the Aardvark, I’ve now updated my blogroll with the blog of Rev. Tom Baker, who hosts a terrific show called Law & Gospel on KFUO-AM. Justification by faith alone may be the article by which the church stands or falls, but rightly dividing Law & Gospel also avoids a lot of bad theology.

Earlier today some friends—practically in-laws—designed and assembled two platform swings in our basement, quite similar to the ones my younger daughter enjoys in occupational therapy. $50 in supplies is a lot cheaper than $400 already made (link dead) and $150 for their swivel bracket. Thanks!

Saturday involved refereeing four full-court games and two half-court games. I gave the halftime message during the last two. The feedback from my wife was that I used too much stress and inflection the first time, that I wasn’t Rod Parsley. Well thank heaven for that! ;) I did better the second time.
